Great location but staff were difficultPosted Sep 29, 2015
The hotel is in a fantastic location and the view from our first room was fantastic. Facilities are quite dated and parking was an issue as the car was taken offsite but not available for an early morning collection as we had a tour booked that required the car to get to. The staff could not appreciate the situation and i was required to resolve myself. The Internet was only accessible from the lobby.

Great views and facilities. Long walk to the beachPosted Sep 20, 2015
Pros: View, Staff, Swimming Pool, Large comfy bed and good bathroom
Cons: Hotel could do with a make over, looking very tired in places.
Location: Location is at the top of the hill, which is excellent for views, but not for walking to the beach. Circular bus at 1 Euro 50 is a perfect solution.
We found the hotel to be excellent, from the staff on duty, to the amazing view from our room to the brilliant swimming pool. Our room was spacious and clean, however a little dated and the sofa/sofabed was in poor condition. The bed was large and comfortable, the shower warm and powerful. Plenty of storage too. Air conditioning was a most welcome. The swimming pool had lots of sunbeds, was nice and clean and very well looked after. Breakfast was fine, but nothing to write home about. Obviously as the hotel is at the very top of the hill, walking to the beach is a long and steep experience, but a cheap circular bus sorts that. We had a wonderful few days and enjoyed our stay there very much.

Lovely position on the hillsidePosted Aug 18, 2015
Pros: The view and the pool and balcony with live music every night.
Cons: Shabby corridors.
Location: Great location with buses either way to Amalfi or Sorrento.
Loved Positano and the position of the hotel. Staff were helpful. Inside of hotel a bit shabby along corridors but was outweighed by wonderful pool.

Nice and comfortable hotel with a decent breakfastPosted Aug 17, 2015
Pros: The staff was very friendly and helpful.
Cons: If the rooms were a bit more soundproof
Location: There are several stores nearby, as well as nice restaurants on the way to the beach/town.
I thought the hotel was decent. The staff was pleasant and the breakfast was good with enough variety. It was one of not many places in Positano that has a pool, so you could cool off there. Patio was nice and you could relax there during diner. The only thing I didnt like is that it was a bit further than I would like to be to the town. About 15 minutes walk. The rooms were not sound proof either, that was another setback.

OverpricedPosted Jul 11, 2015
Overpriced, tired, room was ugly. The amenities were poor, No bath, a fridge but with only 2 bottles of water which didn't get replaced for 3 nights. There was an ugly table and chairs and sofa bed in the room. Breakfast was a total shambles and the hotel was like a maze. the bed was comfortable and the balcony had a good view but overall I think I would have preferred to stay in s B&B.

A Gem in the RoughPosted Jul 1, 2015 on Hotels
We had an absolutely GLORIOUS VIEW of Positano from our large balcony. This hotel (along with every other business and residence in the entire area) is built on a craggy mountainside. It therefore conforms to the contours of the land it shares - causing a most unique building construction challenge. This hotel meanders and its hallways lead all aver the place. It takes a while to get your bearings. The location is above the hustle and bustle of Positano (which gives the hotel guests a pretty cool view of the world below. The hotel is worn, but we were well taken care of and served. The staff helped us numerous times and were courteous. There is a bus stop just up the hill around the corner which leads everywhere near and far. There was a reasonably gifted band playing by the pool nightly, and breakfast was quite a pageant well choreographed. I would absolutely consider staying here again without regard to the age of the hotel. Actually, with a little love and attention, this could be a really great hotel!

Dirty and gross. Too far from town.Posted Jun 27, 2015
Not what I expected. It is NOT a 4 star hotel. The pictures looked far better than the hotel was in real life.

In addition to posting their wait time, offices can also enter a reason for the delay. "If I'm running 45 minutes behind, I'll put in yellow and I'll put the reason for the delay—complex surgical discussion, emergency surgery, or whatever it might be," says Mehta. "Then what we've done is we've turned an uninformed wait into an informed wait and we've given people back half an hour of their day."
In the future, the product will interface with scheduling systems to further automate the alert process. For example, if the scheduling system has the patient's e-mail address or mobile phone number on record, it can send updates automatically. This feature is currently in development.
It's Patient-Approved
"We're all about customer service, so we try to do whatever we can to increase the customer's satisfaction and experience with us," says Rose Liggett, manager of marketing for Rose Medical Center, an imaging center in Denver. "With imaging, the equipment is pretty much the same. As a way to stand out, we try to strive for the best customer experience that we can have. We find that MedWaitTime offers and adds to that experience."
In August, the center implemented the MedWaitTime service at two of its facilities. The Lowry, CO, outpatient imaging facility, which offers MRIs, CT scans, x-rays, and ultrasounds, accepts walk-in patients. The service allows referring physicians to log in and determine whether their patients will experience delays at the office upon arrival. If so, they can tell the patients to wait until the delay has passed.
"The patient knows that they're not going to go from waiting in the referring physician's office to going over to radiology and having to wait 45 minutes there," Liggett says.
The Rose Breast Center in Denver, which accepts walk-in mammography appointments, also uses the tool. The service is beneficial to these patients because it is likely that they could experience significant delays due to high patient volume, says Liggett.
The organization is in the process of educating patients about the service when they schedule their appointment.
Although the service has only recently been implemented, Liggett says that patients who have appointments for longer examinations, such as MRIs and CT scans, are the ones who are logging on the most to check wait times.
"We need to pay attention to what is valuable to our customers," she says. "And time is valuable to everyone. By offering this program, we are acknowledging that their time is important to us."
Mehta says MedWaitTime receives many calls from organizations that have a director of customer experience or patient satisfaction. He notes that these organizations—because they are already working to improve customer satisfaction—believe that part of their product is to offer a pleasant patient experience, and MedWaitTime improves that experience.
Many patients will leave a practice if they repeatedly experience excessive wait times prior to an appointment, Mehta says. Even if they don't leave the practice, having displeased patients leads to bad word of mouth.
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.

Discussion in 'Droid RAZR MAXX' started by t35rk, Feb 7, 2012.
I can confirm also....just ordered my 2 droid razr maxx for the price of one !!!!!oh ya!!!!
The way the bogo worked in the past, you had to have another line on the account eligible for upgrade also. In other words you basically need to lines eligible for upgrade to qualify for the bogo.
Still rocking the OG Droid using Tapatalk!!!
Went to the verizon store you can get the Maxx in the bogo but its 299.99... Iphones not included. (mis information) I wonder if anyone at verizon knows anything at all? It seems you get a different story every person you talk too..
Last week I bought my Maxx for $169.99. My wife bought hers for $269.99. We were on seperate accounts. Can we each return our phones, combine our accounts with a family plan, then repurchase my phone for $169.99 and get the second one free?
Wanted to update that I got the bogo deal on the Maxx in store. They were out of stock at every store in the area though, but we went through the order and the phones will be shipped to my address.
The VZW store by PDX was also sold out. Rep did an inventory search and said there wasn't a Razr Maxx available in store within a 100 mile radius. We ordered them anywho and bought two of the docking bundles they had for $99. Finally we can retire our OG Droids. Realized I might be sad in a nostalgic kind of way when we put these old phones to rest.
I got 2 razr maxx on the way none in store but they are doing Bogo on them I should have mine Tuesday.....and to get the Bogo you need 2 line ready for upgrade or new lines
Sent from my DROID BIONIC using DroidForums
I got my BOGO today for me and the wife... walked in, told them what I wanted, they didn't have any so they ordered it for us... $295 out the door for two (had a $30 NewEvery2 credit)... should be here by Tuesday... can't wait to ditch my OG. It's been great, but it's time for a change.
He was curious where I heard about the promo, because it wasn't advertised for the MAXX, haha.
lol yah it seemed like i was more informed than the sales rep at the verizon store, i told her about the maxx. I even had to tell her that the double data applied to all data packages over 2gb
They also didnt have any Maxx phones in stock, so i will be getting mine on tuesday. It seems that no verizon store even had any MAXXes in stock. i'm thinking that after their first shipments on jan 26 the phones sold so well that they couldn't restock their supplies and havent had any since.
Fortunately the wife and I are on a grandfathered unlimited plan, originally from Alltel... looking forward to taking full advantage of it :-D $20/line for unlimited data can't be beat...
Yah this is my first smartphone(i know, i know) and it kinda sucks that i only get 10gb for $50. but it sure beats some of the other data packages out there. Also, if you're on an unlimited plan do u get throttled after a certain amount??? if so around what amount of gb?? since i plan on using every last bit of my 10gb im wondering if ill be throttled at any point. :unsure:
Right now I use around 2GB/month on 3G... I haven't received any notifications from Verizon yet about me being in the top 5% or being throttled.
Edit: Looking at Verizon's 'Network Optimization' page, they aren't throttling 4G users on unlimited plans quite yet... So even if I was being throttled on 3G, I won't be any more.
Does Network Optimization apply to customers using 4G services?
No. We reserve the right to include 4G LTE users later, but right now this only applies to the top 5% of users with unlimited data plans using 3G devices. If you have a 4G LTE device you will not be affected at this time.
Network Optimization
sweet, i guess i shouldn't worry then, gracias.

Management of massive calcified transdural thoracic disk herniation
ABSTRACT Thoracic disk herniation is a not uncommon pathology faced by the spinal surgeon. The management of massive intradural thoracic disk herniation with ventral cord compression is problematic both in terms of obtaining adequate decompression and ensuring no subsequent leakage of cerebrospinal fluid. A 54-year-old woman presented with a 10 year history of back pain and left leg pain. Over the past 6 months she experienced a progressive spastic paraparesis in both legs with recent urinary incontinence. A left anterolateral thoracotomy for excision of T8/9 thoracic disk protrusion was affected. A transdural decompression was performed with resection of the calcified dura and performance of a Gore-Tex duraplasty and pleuroplasty. A free muscle graft was placed in the intervening space and the chest drains were placed on non-suction. A spinal drain was maintained for 5 days. She made an excellent neurological recovery. Avoidance of cerebrospinal leakage is paramount when performing transthoracic approaches as negative intrapleural pressure can lead to persistence of leakage. This report documents a safe and reliable way to deal with massive intradural thoracic disk rupture with avoidance of subsequent spinal fluid leak.

- "However, the symptoms usually progress slowly when it does occur [9]. Sasaki et al. [10] was the first to describe upper thoracic disc herniation followed by acutely progressing paraplegia, and several authors have reported that thoracic disc herniation is usually associated with radiological disc calcification [11-13]. However, in our case, the CT scans and gross examination of the excised herniated disc failed to provide any evidence of calcification. "
ABSTRACT: We report a case of a 66-year-old woman with progressing myelopathy. Her history revealed instrumented fusion from T10 to S1 for degenerative lumbar kyphosis and spinal stenosis. The plain radiographs showed narrowing of the intervertebral disc space with a gas shadow and sclerotic end-plate changes at T9-T10. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed a posterolateral mass compressing the spinal cord at the T9-T10 level. The patient was treated with a discectomy through the posterior approach combined with posterior instrumentation. The patient's symptoms and myelopathy resolved completely after the discectomy and instrumented fusion. The thoracic disc herniation might have been caused by the increased motion and stress concentration at the adjacent segment.Asian spine journal 06/2010; 4(1):52-6. DOI:10.4184/asj.2010.4.1.52

ABSTRACT: Case report. To report a rare thoracic intervertebral disc herniation followed by acutely progressing paraplegia. Spinal Injuries Center, Fukuoka, Japan. A 37-year-old man presented with sudden severe backache and acutely progressing motor impairments of both lower extremities after antecedent backache lasting about 5 days. Neurological examination showed analgesia and hypoesthesia below the T4 dermatome level, dysesthesia to pinprick below right inguinal level, and severe motor impairments of the lower extremities (Frankel classification C). Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging demonstrated spinal cord compression due to a postero-laterally existing epidural mass at the T2-T3 level. After laminectomy at the T2-T3 level, the sequestrated disc material was detected and excised as one piece through the right side of the dura. The excised herniated mass had a ring-like form and was thought to originate from the annulus fibrosis. After the emergency surgery, he had complete relief from the backache and control of both lower extremities recovered gradually. At 4 weeks after the emergent operation, motor power of both lower extremities recovered almost completely. He was able to walk without any assistance. MR imaging study after surgery did not reveal the sequestrated mass, except for a mild disc bulging at the T2-T3 level. Accurate diagnosis of acute symptomatic thoracic disc herniation is occasionally difficult.

Policy, technology combine to improve data management
At a July 23 hearing before the House Natural Resources Committee's Energy and Mineral Resources Subcommittee, witnesses said the federal government's approach to geospatial data is not well-integrated with state and local efforts.
While experts say policy changes must be made to improve the situation, they add that emerging technologies might help agencies make better use of geospatial information.
For example, Google recently launched a new version of Google Earth Enterprise, the technology used to build Google Earth and Google Maps, said Dylan Lorimer, product manager at Google Earth Enterprise.
The product lets organizations use their geospatial information to build custom versions of Google Earth and Maps, Lorimer said.
"A number of our customers have huge archives of aerial or satellite imagery over their areas of interest, so now we are allowing them to essentially build with all of that data and view it with Google Earth," Lorimer said.
For example, the South Florida Water Management District, a regional agency charged with managing and protecting water resources, uses Google Earth Enterprise to create a common picture of the state of Florida's waterways.
The agency uses aerial photography and information layers depicting structures, canals, district-owned lands, water use permits and environmental monitoring stations.
Water officials throughout the district log on to the system to see all available information — such as canal levels — visually integrated in one place.
The new version lets organizations easily publish custom globes to the Web in 3-D. The previous version allowed only flat, 2-D maps to be published to the Web. Anything more complicated required customized servers and programming.

This B&B is absolutely gorgeous. It is located on a quiet cobblestone street, within walking distance of all major tourist attractions, including Le Palais des Papes and Le Pont d'Avignon. The room was well appointed, with chocolates bedside and complimentary soaps and shampoo. The B&B has a lot of character, and I was happy to have discovered such a nice place in the middle of the city. I had a lot of privacy, but the innkeeper was always available if I had questions. Breakfast was copious, and I never left the house hungry. They give you a key, so you can come and go as you please, which was great for staying out late or leaving early. Avignon is a beautiful city full of history, and this B&B follows suit. Do yourself a favor and make sure to stay here next time you are in town!

Because of the reviews, I hesitated to book this hotel. It was very pretty, the staff was very nice and helpful, we left early and they had a to go breakfast, which was helpful. Do not hesitate to stay here.
Review collected in partnership with Hilton Garden Inn
This is a wonderful hotel, the staff is great, the breakfast was wonderful and the cleaniness is a plus. I stayed here for a pre-stay before my cruise and the location is right outside the Miami airport.
We stayed here for the first time in January of 2014 for a night before our cruise. We found it to be a good value, excellent staff and a very nice hotel with a great breakfast. We liked it so much we also stayed here after our cruise for a day booking since our flight out was not until 8pm. This I have to say was a brilliant idea as breakfast was also included. Not that you really need that just after a cruise but to come off the ship, drop your bags into the hotel room and relax at breakfast with a coffee outside was a perfect way to finish our vacation while waiting for our flight out. Doing this gave us a chance to relax, nap and do shopping with the free shuttle service to Walmart or Dolphin Mall.You hear a bit of noise for the airport but not much as you are farther away than some but, and most importantly the shuttle was perfect both to and from the airport. It took only minutes to get there and was not a very long wait at the airport for the return to the hotel. The staff were excellent and very helpful and went above and beyond to make our stay perfect. The hotel is very good but we had an issue with the elevators once.
We stayed here at the end of our cruise and the facility was exceptional. The staff was super friendly and very helpful. We arrived shortly after 9 a.m. and our room was not ready, I didnt expect it to be but the staff stored our luggage and told us we could utilize the pool and spa if we like. When we were checking on the shuttle service to the mall shortly after our arrival we were told the room was now ready!!!! The room was huge and very clean as was the entire facility. The pool was warm and the spa fantastic. Our stay the day before the cruise was at another hotel downtown which I paid over $200 and can not hold a candle to the Hilton Gardens at all. I highly recommend this place!!
As with other Hilton properties this one met the service and hospitality level known for Hilton. Busier than any other HGI I've stayed at but considering the location I can see why. Service was great.
The Hilton Garden Inn at Miami International Airport West was picked because it was near the airport and we were doing business one day at the hotel. It was convenient for going south and for the airport. There was an airport shuttle but we would not recommend going in or out of downtown Miami or Miami Beach around rush hour. The traffic was horrible. The hotel was clean. The furnishings were in great condition. The staff was helpful. The buffet breakfast was lavish and a good value at $12. We were far from the action. The road the hotel was on was so busy that it was difficult to walk across.
Express and courteous check-in/out; clean, clear, comfy and wide suite; excellent service in the bar by Mr. Byron; good breakfast and dinner; free parking, good etc, good etc.... What else for a hotel ? Well, one negative thing : Had no my favorite vodka Grey Goose in the bar, next time I will book it along with room :) Even with this "failure", this is why whenever I have to go for business to Miami, select this excellent hotel

Posted December 07, 2011 on AP on Fox
The Associated Press and an NBA referee have reached a settlement in a lawsuit against the news agency and one of its sports writers over a Twitter message suggesting the referee intentionally made a bad call to make up for another one that went against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Referee William Spooner agreed to drop the suit, filed last March in Minneapolis, pending removal of the Jan. 24 tweet from Jon Krawczynski's Twitter account and a payment of $20,000 for Spooner's litigation costs. The tweet was sent while Krawczynski was covering the Houston Rockets-Timberwolves game. He heard an exchange between Spooner and Timberwolves coach Kurt Rambis during the second period. Sitting courtside, Krawczynski tweeted: ''Ref Bill Spooner told Rambis he'd `get it back' after a bad call. Then he made an even worse call on Rockets. That's NBA officiating folks.'' The settlement also required a mutually agreed upon statement to be released. It explains the decision on the settlement and r...

Maximising your memory + Memory
Joanna MacGregor says that when memorising music it is important to develop your intellectual memory rather than relying on your muscle equivalent
Many of us subscribe to false beliefs about how our memories work, sometimes with serious consequences. We debunk some common myths
Forget rote learning, one of the best ways to commit something to memory is to think of associated images – the more outlandish, the better
As we grow old, our memory starts to fail. Or does it? While some degeneration is inevitable, research has shown that parts of the brain actually improve with age, writes Jon Simons

SharesPost Launches to Bring Private Company Stock Liquidity to Early Stage Investors
SharesPost Unveils Platform to Match Buyers and Sellers of Private Equity and Automate Transactions; New Community Becoming Hub for Private Company Data and Analyst Research
SANTA MONICA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SharesPost today launched the first online platform to bring true liquidity to the private equity market. SharesPost connects buyers and sellers of private equity directly and automates the sale of private company stock — all without charging a commission. The first transaction has already been sent to escrow.
"The way in which private equity assets are bought and sold hasn't changed in more than 70 years — at its core, it was always brokers matching up buyers and sellers over the phone"
Available today in public beta, SharesPost is poised to become the largest community for private equity transactions and the central hub for private company research and valuation data. By offering independent third-party research from Next Up! Research and VC Experts; escrow services from U.S. Bank; and electronic signature from EchoSign, SharesPost is providing the transparency and low-cost execution required to drive market liquidity. The SharesPost community has already seen an increasing number of new posts to buy and sell shares of some of today's most exciting private companies, including Facebook, LinkedIn, SolarCity, Tesla Motors, eHarmony and more.
"Over the past decade, an IPO has become unworkable for most companies with less than a $500 million market cap, leaving a large and growing number of very successful private companies with little hope of liquidity for their shareholders," said Michael Moe, co-founder of Next Advisors and SharesPost board member. "Additionally, buyers have had limited access to the most significant growth companies of tomorrow. By bringing buyers and sellers together in an open forum and providing them with the information they need to agree on price, SharesPost is addressing this problem. Having taken many companies through IPO, I understand the issues that must be addressed to build a viable market for private equity. Incorporating the necessary steps in their automated online process, SharesPost is well positioned to capture the leading companies and those who want to invest in them."
SharesPost members seeking to sell can post indications of interest anonymously and have their posts simultaneously seen by multiple potential buyers. SharesPost buyers have the ability to find and evaluate shares in some of today's most exciting private companies, and interact directly with potential sellers to more easily execute a commission-free transaction. By creating liquidity for shareholders in need of an exit, SharesPost reduces the pressure on company management to accept a sub-optimal but immediate "liquidity event." As a result, SharesPost is the secondary market solution that serves the needs of all stakeholders of a private company.
"The way in which private equity assets are bought and sold hasn't changed in more than 70 years — at its core, it was always brokers matching up buyers and sellers over the phone," said Greg Brogger, CEO and founder of SharesPost. "Given the enormous and continuing growth of private equity, we saw that the broker model wasn't scalable enough to meet the industry's needs, so we combined an open Web 2.0 information and communications platform with an automated transaction process to finally create an efficient market. By connecting a community of qualified buyers and sellers, improving the amount of data available on private companies, providing an automated contract process and integrating escrow services, SharesPost is the first company to bring true liquidity to the private equity market."
SharesPost offers its members a library of standardized agreements to contract and handle transaction restrictions such as rights of first refusal. A financial institution can then provide escrow services for the transaction. By eliminating the need for brokers and lawyers, sophisticated buyers and sellers find that transactions can be closed for a fraction of the cost, time and hassle of traditional secondary transactions.
SharesPost was designed to work for all private equity industry participants — buyers, sellers and companies. SharesPost offers the following key benefits:
- Democratizing Secondary Transactions — SharesPost's low-cost solution works for smaller transactions (as small as $25,000) that traditional brokers may not consider worth their time. Members also get access to critical valuation information and research reports about private companies that were previously unavailable. Reports on Tesla Motors, SugarCRM, XDX and Linden Labs can be downloaded for free now. Other reports will be available soon.
- Win-Win for Company and Shareholders — SharesPost enables companies to easily facilitate sales for shareholders demanding an immediate exit and so aligns the company's shareholder base around a long-term plan for value creation. Management can also use SharesPost to sell some portion of its shares. This frequently results in a team able to focus on building the business instead of its need for short term liquidity.
- Securities Laws Protections — SharesPost's system was designed to comply with existing securities laws governing transfers of private company securities. For example, SharesPost limits access to posts expressing interest in buying shares to qualified institutional buyers and other accredited, sophisticated investors. Similarly, posts expressing an interest in selling shares can only be made with respect to shares held for more than a year (inclusive of option holding periods). SharesPost also makes referrals to securities law practitioners, broker-dealers and investment advisors available to its members. (For more information on the securities laws issues associated with the SharesPost system, please visit the SharesPost website.)

About SharesPost
SharesPost makes private equity liquid by connecting buyers and sellers directly and facilitating easy, automated and safe transactions.

I am developing a simple game. After every round the results will be displayed. In the smartphone version the results will get an own screen (Usually I would use an Activity, which displays a Fragment). In the tablet version the results will be displayed in a dialog. (Usually I would use DialogFragment).
Now I am not sure how to do it correctly. I read a Fragment shouldn't load another Fragment unless the Fragment is a DialogFragment. But if I use a DialogFragment, I can't use it to fill the whole screen. (And if it is possible I think that's actually not the way how it should be done)
I could write a layout "result.xml", a DialogFragment and an Activity plus Fragment. But this way I have to implements the functions of the results screen twice and as far as I know that is what the Fragment should prevent the developers from.
Is there a best practice for this?
